situated on a private, 64-acre mountainous parcel on the outskirts of whittier, nc, gap creek cabin was built by jim & terry altman - and family - in 1971 The cabin continues to be owned and cared-for by the family. Located in an area known as Deep Gap, and bordered on two sides by spring-fed, mountain creeks, the area inspired the cabin name.
accommodating up to 6 adults, a recently renovated kitchen, bathroom with a shower, large front porch with a bench-swing, and an outside deck for grilling, relaxing, and enjoying the creek adds to the mountain-living experience There is also an outdoor shower (with hot & cold running water), a separate, outside 1/2 bath, and a laundry room.
